Mount Pleasant-based Oz Brewing Ltd has today appointed Judge Constable Chartered Accountants as administrators of the company.
In a short statement released after market closed, the company said Kevin Judge from the accounting firm had taken the role of administrator.
The appointment follows an announcement earlier this week that the company will head to the Federal Court on October 14 following an application by a noteholder to appoint a provisional liquidator to the company.
Shares in Oz Brewing have been locked in a trading halt since September 8 with shares last trading at 3.3 cents.
Last month the company sold a 49 per cent interest in the Fremantle-based brewery and restaurant, Mad Monk, for $515,000 with an option to acquire 100 per cent of the asset, to Emem Management Pty Ltd.
In June 2008, the company terminated the share sale agreement to purchase Portable Building Solutions Ltd, eight months after it said it would branch out in the shed and housing business
